22 OCTOBER 2024: Slayers rejoice! The wait is over, Dead Island 2 Ultimate Edition is out now with its VIP experience of HELL-A. Watch the launch trailer here: https://youtu.be/azzHhTll3X4
Whether you're an existing player or brand new to the franchise, this is the ultimate entry ticket to HELL-A. Dead Island 2 Ultimate Edition includes the base game, HAUS and SoLA (Dead Island 2’s twisted story expansions) and a bucketload of stylish cosmetics and deadly weapons, including:
Golden Weapons Pack
Memories of Banoi Pack
Kingdom Come: Deliverance II Weapon Pack
Pulp Weapons Pack
Red’s Demise Katana
All six Slayers’ Premium Skin Packs
For seasoned Slayers who already own the Gold Edition, the game will auto-update to the Ultimate Edition for free, along with all content.
22 October will see another important addition for all Dead Island 2 players: Patch 6, a big free update that will include two major brand-new game modes and various fixes.
The first new mode is Neighborhood Watch, developed by Fishlabs in collaboration with Dambuster Studios. Players will be filling the shoes of the Bobcats – a trio of college survivors defending their frat house in the Venice Canals against relentless waves of zombies, using fresh new skills, weapons and traps (a first in the series).
The second game mode is the highly requested New Game Plus, where seasoned Slayers can dive back into the Story mode for new loot, enemies, increased level cap and more.
For owners of the base game, the Kingdom Come: Deliverance II weapon pack – letting players hack their way through the zombie masses using Zizka's Mace and Sir Radzig's Sword is available for direct purchase. For seasoned Slayers who already own the Gold Edition, the game will auto-update to the Ultimate Edition for free, along with all content. Please note that PlayStation users will need to claim the content from the store before it becomes available in-game.
And for anyone who has yet to give Dead Island 2 a try – there will be free playable trial versions on Xbox and PlayStation digital storefronts, allowing you to play a limited session (both single player and co-op) of the game with your save game progress transferring to the full version once you purchase.
See you all in HELL-A!
